Live vs Demo MT5 Accounts in Golden Trading Cup

Golden Trading Cup can use MT5 account data for product visibility, but prize-eligible public competition ranking is reserved for real connected accounts under the active rules.

Live accounts

A live MT5 account can be eligible for the public monthly leaderboard when the exact server is supported, read-only access works, and competition rules are satisfied.

Eligibility still depends on valid sync evidence and risk controls. A connected account is not automatically prize eligible.

Demo accounts

Demo accounts can be useful for learning the app flow or viewing private stats where the product allows it.

Demo account data should not be treated as a prize-eligible public leaderboard entry.

Key takeaways

  • Live and demo accounts serve different product purposes.
  • Prize eligibility depends on backend evidence and active rules.
  • The public leaderboard should not overstate demo account status.
